Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Cache folders usually contain temporary data and can often be recreated by the app. Removing them is generally low risk, but Chrome may open more slowly afterward, sign you out of some sites in some cases, or need to re-download website content.
Recommendation: You can usually remove this cache folder if you need to free space or troubleshoot Chrome behavior, but do so while Google Chrome is fully closed. Keep it if you prefer to avoid temporary slowdowns or having some website data rebuilt.
